 I didn't test the new server, I simply recompiled the software and copied
 the config over 1:1.

 With a higher log level, I find this

[2012/12/17 11:57:56,  2] smbd/service.c:585(create_connection_server_info)
  guest user (from session setup) not permitted to access this share (ME)

 (where ME = my user id, which is not "guest"). So, for some reason, it looks
 like user names aren't being translated correctly, despite the fact that I
 can login using the password configured (smbpasswd back end).

 Could this be a problem of SIDs? Not that I can figure out how to the values
 on either server.

# ./bin/net getdomainsid
Could not fetch local SID
